4 Texas K-12 Education Funding Update In Aug. 2017, Fitch affirmed State of Texas at AAA /Stable (Issuer Default Rating) biennium outcomes: House voted to adopt the Senate s plan, $1.5B less than House wanted. Total TEA appropriation up, but property value growth has reduced portion funded from state sources No cuts in state s formula funding; student growth fully funded, although no increase to basic allotment funding levels Changes in appropriation will infuse public schools with $350MM, mostly going to smaller districts and to kids with disabilities Boost to the retired teachers health care benefits fund ($212MM); also, increase in state, school districts contribution to TRS-Care-max school district contribution allowed by statute New charter school facilities funding at about $60MM Creation of a statewide commission to study the current public school finance system. 11/20/2017 3

8 Fitch U.S. Public Finance Update November 2017 Nearly all sectors are considered Stable (e.g. tax supported, water and wastewater, public power, higher education, housing) Healthcare is the only sector with a Negative Outlook uncertainty regarding the legislative landscape Economic growth continues to support positive state and local revenue trends; spending pressures are manageable Key Risks strength and duration of the economic expansion, deferred capital, post-employment benefits Average general government rating in the AA category 7
9 Dallas and Houston Pension Legislation Both Dallas and Houston have had chronic pension challenges Dallas Plans Pension issues existed with both the employee plan and police and fire plan: ERF experienced sizable investment losses, increasing NPL DROP role in DPFP emerged as a significant risk to the plan City and police and fire pension board presented competing reform proposals Houston Plans All three plans challenged, due in no small part to past benefit increases Weak funding levels, contributions below required amounts pointed to continued pressure Contributions were ramping up in recent years 8
10 Dallas and Houston Pension Legislation cont d. Dallas Police and Fire Pension Legislation HB 3158 made some notable reforms: - Increases in retirement ages - Contribution increases, reduction in benefit multipliers, elimination of COLAs - Notable changes to DROP program time limit on participation, elimination of interest paid on accounts, distribution revisions Actuarial analysis shows a nearly 25% reduction in the plan liability Houston Pension Legislation SB 2190 also made notable reforms: - Reduction in plan benefits, discount rate - Amortization over 30-year closed period - Increased employee contributions, city contribution corridor $1 billion pension obligation bond issue part of reforms; approved by 70% of voters 9
11 Fitch U.S. Trade Policy Update Two-part report (Aug. and Nov.) examining possible impacts from changes to U.S. trade thru NAFTA negotiations Key takeaways: Specific impacts from renegotiation are difficult to predict Michigan most exposed state; Texas and California more insulated Texas metro areas most at risk are El Paso, Dallas-Fort Worth, Houston Trade rhetoric may be contributing to declines in passenger vehicle border crossings seen in first half of 2017; truck crossings up modestly Tax receipts in some border communities also seeing declines (although currency fluctuations also may be a factor) 10
12 Securitization City of Chicago Sales Tax Securitization Corporation Fitch currently rates the City of Chicago IDR BBB-, Stable Outlook Sales tax securitization corporation was recently formed as a separate financing vehicle a bankruptcy remote issuer City has agreed to sell all right, title and license in certain revenues, most notably the city s home rule sales taxes First sale of $575 million will refinance city s outstanding sales tax revenue bonds Fitch rated the bonds AAA based on a very strong legal structure that insulates bondholders from operating risk, good revenue growth prospects and solid resilience 4/3/14 11
